Long story short, I am pushing about 2650- 2700 FPS (slightly less, recently as the air temps are cooling) out of a 16” 223 AR barrel with 77gr match kings. I recently read that this is fast for a 16” barrel and that brass life will be shortened to only a few reloads.
Is this true? So far I’m on my 6th reloads with this brass without any issues. Also, why would the barrel length matter for brass life? Would I get more out of the brass if it were 20”?
